StorPool 20.0 Change Log¶
20.0 revision 20.0.508.e2623b204¶
Released 26 May 2023
Initial support for Debian 11 and ProxMox operating system.
Drop support for Debian 9 operating system.
storpool_stat
now sends also all kernels installed on the node in order to trigger alerts for known-bad kernel versions (was sending only installed kernel versions with installed modules for StorPool).
20.0 revision 20.0.487.818a7cea4¶
Released 08 May 2023
Updated
disk_init_helper
to properly handle multipath enabled NVMe devices.Revised
net_helper
to generate a random MAC address for bond and bridge interfaces in all bond enabled modes. This resolves an issue where bridge interfaces would have a different MAC address than the underlying bond, causing local (intra-node) communication between services to fail.A single VF interface is now being created for all
mlx5_core
based NICs by default by thevf-genconf
tool, so that a dummy interface will no longer be required for any bond-based configurations.
20.0 revision 20.0.473.ad8854a34¶
Released 28 Apr 2023
Fix for
storpool_server
to exit the cluster before waiting for all operations on ejected drives to complete, when ejecting all drives simultaneously.
20.0 revision 20.0.466.2a2e26fd9¶
Released 21 Apr 2023
storpool_volumecare
is now a highly available service running on each API node (notes here).The
SP_BRIDGE_TEMPLATE
configuration option is now superceded by themgmtConfig backupTemplateName
option (more at this part of the CLI tutorial)The
storpool_stat
service now collects only specificsysctl
values instead of all of them, due to some operations being triggerred on reading the values of sysctls likevm.stat_refresh
.
20.0 revision 20.0.441.61c5774c8¶
Released on 08 Apr 2023
Fixed
storpool_stat
crashing if a volume disappears while it is collecting stats for it.New scrubbing procedure executed through cron with lower number of drives for each run for less impact on cluster operations.
New Management menu in CLI initially showing active API tasks progress (more details here)
20.0 revision 20.0.419.261c0e3b2¶
Released on 18 Mar 2023
Adds support for the Micron 7450 PRO NVMe drive.
Functional updates for
storpool_ctl
now leavingstorpool_nvmed
running upon stop when the--expose-nvme
is not providedConfigure a custom ssh port for the
storpool_havm
serviceFixed CLI warning when reporting per-GiB IOPS or bandwidth limits
20.0 revision 20.0.386.8ea42a7d8¶
Released 08 Mar 2023
New option to
storpool_ctl
to show only not running or not enabled services (more info here)The output of

CLI command now shows volume and snapshot tags.
20.0 revision 20.0.372.4cd1679db¶
Released 24 Feb 2023
Added
storpool_volumecare
global and per-policy template override added for local or received from the remotes snapshots (detailed Volumecare documentation)Added

20.0 revision 20.0.353.e5f7ee9c0¶
Released 16 Feb 2023
Fix for
storpool_volumecare
printing erroneous output on stdout, breaking JSON output.Add an API option to control whether a volume and its snapshots are moved to the destination sub-cluster upon multicluster attach operation.
20.0 revision 20.0.334.70c4fbda5¶
Released 03 Feb 2023
Fix for random read performance through
storpool_bridge
with a configured large number ofmaxRemoteRecoverRequests
.
20.0 revision 20.0.325.7d16d036f¶
Released 01 Feb 2023
Gathering additional data in
storpool_stat
for the installed package versions for OpenNebula and CloudStack orchestrations.Increase the number of NVMe drives for a single node from 16 to 64.
20.0 revision 20.0.276.b05695816¶

The
balancer
tool now requires one of-F
,-A

storpool_iscsi
